Afro comb made of Ebony

Ebony is is one of the hardest and most difficult woods to work with that exists. 

The high density and hardness of the wood place special demands on the comb maker's tools of the maker and the extremely fine-pored surface allow no mistakes. Precision to the tenth of a millimeter is required so that the comb maintains its even shape and an absolutely smooth surface is achieved.

Ebony combs care for your hair while combing. Because unlike, for example, metal or Plastic combs, which almost always have sharp edges, these combs perfectly processed. The ebony itself is able to transport the hair's natural oils to to its surface and transports it for the body's own fat, so important for hair health, to the often dry hair ends.

Another an important advantage is that the natural material does not carry electrical charges absorbs and thus prevents the hair from becoming statically charged when combing.

Careful Polish with natural beeswax brings out the silky shine of the material valid. Ebony has a higher density than water, so it is indeed also waterproof without polish. Nevertheless, we recommend cleaning the comb from time to time with some vegetable oil or even better the special Hornkammbalsam, to wear off.

Genuine Ebony combs are rare and valuable, but also extremely durable and timeless beautiful. It is important that they are made horizontally from one piece, as Ebony does not tolerate tensions within the comb caused by gluing of different sections often occurs. As a result, (unfortunately) exclude that cuttings of the valuable wood are still used could be. Genuine ebony combs are masterpieces of craftsmanship that prove to their owner every day for many years that it is worth looking for something special even in small things.
